Back in June, at the Xbox E3 2018 press conference, Xbox head Phil Spencer reported that cloud engineers were building a game streaming network that would be proficient at streaming console-grade games on any compatible device. Microsoft has been implying at such a service for a long while, however on Monday, the software giant announced officially that it was launching Project xCloud, thereby allowing us a sneak peek into what such a service would like from next year.
As Microsoft states, there are billions of gamers everywhere throughout the world, yet not every one of them possess or are even keen on owning gaming consoles. The best way to reach whatever number individuals as could be expected under the circumstances is to enable them to play games more flexibly on devices such as the PC, tablet and even the phone.
